At the moment, I'm trying to figure out what series are on Batoto that aren't in the MangaTraders archive.

It's a bit annoying because of the large amount of Manga-Updates data (which I'm using as a sort of 'reference').

On a side note, I wish there was an archive for this board that wasn't Foolz, which I refuse to use except when I absolutely have to. I really miss easymodo, foolz is constantly slow and laggy and it took me ages to find a post I made a couple days ago.

>>109972634Is there a way to upload a link?Like uploading a link that redirects you to mangaupdates page of the manta you're viewing?This way we solve the meets metadata issue and give mangaupdates more traffic.

So am I forced now to use online reader? Because I want to read Akame ga Kill but there isn't a site that has more than 10 chapters of it. It's like every 10 chapters someone stops translating it and someone else picks it up. And all of scanlators have annoying wordpress sites with 2 posts per page.

>>109973564I've spoonfed a lot today, batoto crawler is a python script.Fmd stand for free manga downloader it also rip images from online readers.Chamber them up and try them, I suggest trying fmd first.

So why do you guys care so much about MangaTraders all of a sudden? I've been here quite a while, and before it going down I almost never saw it being mentioned, and the people I've talked to outside of 4chan said they've never heard of it.

>>109973960I don't think there are.>>109973903I'm italian, never studied french in my whole life.>>109974058Remember it should be scanned too, if it's used you won't be certain there aren't flaws in some pages. Still better than nothing but if you have to do it, then better do it the best way.

Since I'm on android tablet and got a few volumes.I'm looking on a way to connect to the ftp server.Filezilla didn't work form me so did es explorer the only thing that's working is x-plorer .Am I the only one who's having the same problem?

>>109974925I've collected lots of scattered things wandering around blogs and such. Lots of older series. Actually found some Takao Saito manga recently that was on Jmanga. Apparently it was on nyaa for a year and no one seemed to know. No seeds, but I managed to scrape an out of sorts online reader.

>>109975094Japan Sinks which just got published on CR anyways. And Devil King. I also ripped all the others from CR, and HorribleScans is nowhere in sight. The DDL for Hotel Detective should be in the archive somewhere.

>>109975179>It might as well be. Applications are often ignored or put on the back burner for months at a time.I got mine resolved in less than a day. Maybe that changed, but it still doesn't change that Nyaa is worthless when older releases are concerned.

If you mean as one giant batch torrent, then they've already said no. They would have to be respective individual torrents. They host licensed shit, right? That's a plus. Finding those old Viz scans is a hassle sometimes.

>>109975953And now I see that AB keep torrents with unarchived manga. What the fuck, why would anyone do that. This is completely retarded, even more retarded that bakabt's policy of keeping original filenames, no matter how badly it fucks up the sorting.

>>109976976No, I'm talking about diffirent thing.Torrents there have manga chapters/volumes unzipped instead of just single .zip file for chapter/volume. Sometimes they have a mix. Yotsuba, for example, have scanlation zipped and ADV Manga's scans as a folder with 900+ images. How the fuck I am supposed to seed this shit.

>>109977197You can have both. I don't know why AB does it but yeah, you can upload an archived copy and an unarchived copy for a single series. So then there are faggots who basically earn uploads simply by uploading an unarchived version that was from the originally archived upload.

>>109977904I'm making a folder named "!Oneshots" in the manga directory , the exclamation mark so it can show first.And if the admin could afford a bit of his/her time to forgive my mistake and delete the "oneshot" folder in the root directory, I'll be really grateful.

>>109978128I'd bet most of the PNG's aren't even grayscale or indexed. pngcrush won't fix that either. I've ended up just using pngnq to convert to 32 indexed colors and it doesn't really compress further with png compression tools.

>>109984650the best I can do it rename them to the display name, somewhat nicely formatted, given in the MT database (because I'm not going to even try to algorithmically rename 50k files with no rhyme or rhythm to their naming to fit Daiz's arcane scheme); evidently the database says that both of those files correspond to the same thing

>>109984960I suppose it's pretty easy although ultimately I don't see the point, because you won't be able to say whether it's a magazine scan or a volume scan (because of MT's chapter repacks), which you have to specify in Daiz's naming scheme, and we would be forced to guess, which is a bad idea. You'd have to get the scanlator name from the original filename as well, and also deal with stuff like omakes and specials being mentioned.

Here is the info: https://www.dropbox.com/s/5cxssk96cf07z4w/fdata_proc_v3.txt

>>109984719There are plenty of manga with same or similar name. Having author as a part of the name should be mandatory to avoid issues and it certainly serves more purpose that to guess how to write chapter and group labels.

>>109985380From what I know the issue isn't big enough to validate the change in whole naming scheme. Just use [Extra information] in such cases.If you make the filenames too long they won't fit the screen.

It doesn't matter, the scheme should be redone anyway. Start with scheme for organization of releases, then for pages and after that start thinking about whole series. You'll then notice that this scheme is unnecessary long for completed series, which you even pointed as a problem.

>Newfags arguing over the naming scheme.>Newfags complaining about free thingsFuck off if you are not going to help.

At least you guys didn't break the document.

How should I go on to uploading Junji Ito? Do I make a folder for him and his short stories? I was thinking f leaving a whole folder for Uzumaki, Gyo, Hellstar Remina, The Junji Ito Horror Comic Collection (sans Tomie), Tomie and then Yami no Koe

>>109987797Upload them how they were released, so if they were all volumes in one series then it would go in one folder. Separate stories go in their own folders if they are in their own or a different series. I don't read much Ito sorry.

Is the admin here? Please make the amount of uploaders bigger by 5 people if possibleAnd to the anon who uploaded Jitsu wa Watashi wa yesterday, you forgot the parenthesis for the "I am". Right now it reads "Jitsu wa Watashi wa I am"

>>109987381>Why keep it on AB though?Where did I say you aren't allowed to use different sites? AB is very good for our goal but shouldn't be the only site. I replied to anon who was criticizing AB - I think it's much better than nyaa. Having stuff in more places is obviously the best.

>>109987403>for a year.You see, on AB people have a good reason to seed as long as they are even somewhat interested in what the site offers. There are >200 torrents I seeded on AB for more than year (came there in 2013) and have no intention of stopping, ever.On nyaa I keep low seeded torrents but don't reseed after moving files to different location.

>>109988727Why would you care about scenario which could only be applicable to someone with a dozen downloaded series? Such person is extremely unlikely to have two manga with the same name.If you have few hundred of downloaded manga it's tens of thousands of chapters. No way in hell anyone sane keeps that in one folder. You're free to be unsatisfied that common sense is my last argument.

>>109988996I just disagree in uploading the Ito stuff under the single author, and reducing clutter in terms of lots of files shouldn't be the priority, but putting the same stuff in the same place - series in their own folders with no author folder

>>109989513Is it going to be archive or DLL site? Because if it will have mostly completed series, it might be worth to create db file with all metadata, instead of trying to fit that into a filename like retards.

I can see people putting all the Junji Ito stuff into one folder but on the other hand I'm pretty sure most would prefer to keep Urasawa's titles separate.If we have to choose, I think titles should take priority over authors. Ideally we should have folders for all the mangaka (perhaps in "Authors" folder) AND folders for each series. Including Uzumaki, Gyo and so on.

>>109989895Your average page of Japanese text has a lot of Hiragana, still a lot of kanji and maybe three words of Katakana, at most. Even more annoying when you just learn vocabulary, more than enough Hiragana practice, every new word has some Hiragana, but only every 50 words at most you’ll see Katakana, and even then it isn’t really practice since the words themselves are so fucking easy, you just have to decipher the Kana.

Yes, I’m lazy, but the “I learned 500 Kanji in a few months” type lazy. (Granted, I do know some Chinese, that makes it easier, still)

>>109990179That doesn't work for manga, because title is much more important with the majority of manga having unique names. Also Mangaka having similar names may also trip you up more than similar manga names

>>109990353Well, works if you have free time. 30 per day is pretty fucking normal when you take a language course, at least that’s what we did when I was in China. Doesn’t really work all that well when you have to go to that place called work.

>>109991001It’s a different story if you already know Chinese though, then it’s really fucking useful to actually “learn Kanji”. Or rather, that’s what you already did when you learned Chinese and now you’ve just gotta use that knowledge on Japanese.

Also>Yes, it’s embarrassing if you’re fluent in a language but can’t write it by hand. This is an issue even for Japanese people.Holy shit yes. Once had a Chinese Chinese teacher almost die from embarrassment because he couldn’t for the love of god remember a word without using his phone. Hilarious.

>>109993998I don't know. But a public manga reader site has much more potential for being taken down, because it has more appeal and every idiot can use it. And I don't see manga reader sites being taken down.

>>109996188Holy shit, that must have sucked balls, anon. But from what I've read in threads on here 150 kbps is a pretty average speed for MT. I never really spent that much time there, I joined 3 weeks before it got hacked and shut down. ;-;

>>109996665I never got into triple digits on MT's final days, but I think that had something to do with everyone downloading all they could before it closed, every server said heavy in those last days.

>>109996545I just got 9.1 MB/s from Madokami over three files. The volumes are too small to measure properly. First volume of Basilisk got downloaded before I managed to see the speed, others were 2.7-4.1.I'm getting that 1.2 GB Berserk now, it started at 3.0, didn't want to go beyond 3.3 for some time but now it's ~5.5 MB/s.Great speeds overall.100/10 Internet here.

>>109997841No, because circle/author is more important than title in case of doujins. Arguably Comiket number too. No one remembers all the titles of 1000 doujins they fapped to. They remember the artstyle/story type though (circle) or series/when they found it (here the comiket number might help)

>>110000708They think anime is for kids.Shounen anime like naruto,bleach,one peice are for teenage boys.That's about it.Most anime we get are dubbed into Arabic and censored for the double innuendo jokes,bath and kissing scenes are cut.Recently women in anime that are wearing sleeveless shirts or short skirts are digitally censored.Oh and traps are girls no exception.

Existing issues are:1. Duplicate and/or unclassified files in the Manga folder. We need to either delete those or move them to the right subfolder.2. Spreadsheet needs to be updatedhttps://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1NJrGFAJWoJVnFMI9cJDJLm0O1A5Cv6ukB0FTo7-kaV8/edit?usp=sharing3. Need to bring ongoing series up to date and check that the "completed" manga have 100% of the files.

>>110000735It wasn't this bad with the american soldiers around, note the militia and the ISIS are killing at their leisure.>>110000813Muslim,suni.>>110000930Thanks anon, I'll try but in my line of work it hard.
